various positions

BE OUR D.C. INTERN: There is one (1) internship open for a Washington D.C. student who will write a quick daily thing, on weekdays, and have the personality to go cover some stuff in town sometimes, like indie rock shows and ice cream socials and gallery openings and K Street job fairs and inaugurations and other foul LNS debacles.

No resumes, no attachments, no bullshit. Send a very terse e-mail with the subject line SECRET INTERN APPLICATION ROBOT with maybe a fake Wonkette post about, oh, maybe a Ron Paul rally or a Congressional BBQ or a bullet-point list of fun bar things to do, this weekend, in D.C.

I forgot how to be ironic and sincere at the same time. you forgot to mention that congressionla page experience would be a plus, although clearly not necessary. needless to say, mental health should be a benefit

Oh, you are diabolical. You are going to send this poor kid to cover the Ron Paultard spectacle AND the boring Ralph Nader “events,” aren’t you?

Larry McAwful

Interns get to have affairs, right? If so, do we get to choose whom we have the affairs with? If so, I want to have my affairs with Gabrielle Giffords or Amy Klobuchar, and maybe with Darcy Burner, provided she gets elected.

If we don’t get to choose, though, I’m not interested.

I don’t live in the District of Columbia, I live in the city of Columbia. And if that isn’t close enough for you guys, then fuck you all.

Although now that I think of it, I’m not a student anyway so I wouldn’t be eligible. But still, it’s the principle of the thing.

[re=59320]Sabre_Justice[/re]: Wonkette itself is already an expression of Rule 34. And you can’t Rule 34 on Rule 34.

[re=59343]Mahousu[/re]: You can too, I saw it on a German fetish site last week.

It was glorious.

[re=59343]Mahousu[/re]: 4chan does this on hourly basis.

If you don’t get an intern, consider sending some of your crochety long term commenters to the parties. Woo hooo! I’ll go! Eat shrimp, drink free liquor, and make sassy comments as I take folks’ pictures.

[re=59337]Larry McAwful[/re]: I’m pretty sure if you’re a dude, you have to pick a Republican. One of those clammy, ‘religious’ guys from the south. Not a fun part of the job.

WadISay

Is there a “job description” for this position? Gad, that would be a howl.

Naked Bunny with a Whip

Is it okay if I commute in from Des Moines? I have a car.

[re=59343]Mahousu[/re]: Like Hell you can’t! Those who say such things lack imagination!

whiteasasheet

How much does it pay?

hahaha.

[re=59343]Mahousu[/re]: You mean you haven’t seen the picture of the guy shocked to see Calvin & Hobbes porn on the internet getting fucked up the ass by his computer?

jagorev

Can I be your New York/tri-state area correspondent? Every media organization needs to have one! Also, this area has, I believe, 75% of the US population and 80% of the economy.

[re=59456]jagorev[/re]: You a fan of NY1? “The world beyond NY” one story, and it’s BACK TO NY! I love that station.

Serolf Divad

Is that Sara K. Smith before she let her hair grow out?

jagorev

[re=59481]graceless[/re]: Well, to be fair, there really isn’t that much of “the world beyond NY” –

[re=59448]Godot[/re]: That’s pretty hard to parse. Not that it really matters, I suppose.
In my case, I was shocked to see some woman’s ankles on the Internets the other day. This medium is clearly going to pot.

Hart88

You had me right up until you mentioned LNS

What happened to Ms Wonkette’s cat? It used to be right there, next to typewriter.

Is this a secret plan to get a huge stockpile of fake stories about Ron Paul events and congressional barbecues that will at some future point be posted as actual news? Well is it?
